Since it's impossible in every case to estimate how many hours it would take, then how to you write a proposal and get it approved by an organization such as a church or school? I've been doing a flat rate for years. Each client gets a piano action that is much improved, though each action requires something different in the shop. It all comes out in the wash for me, some more difficult, and some easier. But each client receives the benefit of a better performing piano. How do others approach this situation?

Bentley Sent: Tuesday, June 21, 2005 6:57 AM To: Pianotech Subject: Grand Regulation Fee I've read a lot about tuning fees recently, but what about a complete grand regulation that takes anywhere from 10 to 20 hours depending on the original condition of the action? These all seem to come to my direction since there are no other techs nearby who wish to do this work. Ray ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ray T.
